Peavey 5150 Amplifier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Peavey 5150 Amplifier was an all-tube guitar amplifier made by Peavey Electronics from 1991-2004, that was made as a signature model for Edward Van Halen. The amp features 5 pre-amp tubes and 4 power-amp tubes.
When Edward Van Halen and Peavey parted ways in 2004, the name of the amp was changed to "6505."
[edit] Other Variations/Models of the 5150
- 5150 II - The same basic circuitry as the original 5150, with the exception of an extra pre-amp tube. (The name of this amp was changed in 2004 to "6505+")
- 5150 212 "Combo" - A 60 Watt version of the 5150, with an attached 2 x 12" speaker cabinet. This version has only 2 power-amp tubes, and improved "clean" circuitry.
